    I sure do, a lot of loved ones.  Won't be too long before we see each other again, one of the upsides of old age.

    Upside? How naive.

    You won’t see anyone or anything when you die.

    You don't know that.  Many people have had near death experiences and describe seeing lost loved ones.  
    You may choose not to believe but you do not know....

    The fact is that nobody knows. I prefer not to engage in wishful thinking.

    Then why attacks others for their beliefs on the subject?  As you said no one knows for certain.   Choose to believe or disbelieve if you want and be kind enough to allow others to do the same.

    Grief is a real bummer, for sure. Sending you hugs. 

    I've lost most of my favorite people. I miss them bunches but mostly feel fortunate to have had them and those relationships.

    I understand how you must feel.  I lost three people this past year - a cousin a year older than me, a childhood friend and a friend who was a next-door-neighbor when I moved into my own apartment.

    My best to you.
    You're in my thoughts and prayers.

    And I bet you two have many memories of those two years in Florida.

    And, yes, I'm missing people lately. And my cat.

    Yet, I consider myself blessed --  the people I miss the very most are the ones I don't miss so much because they feel literally a part of me. They're always with me.

    I'm sorry, Element; yours is a fresh wound.  I miss my daughter in an undescribable way.  In the past few years I've lost so many friends , some who were like family.  The loss and pain from it increases with each additional one.  It is cumulative.   We are joyful with each birth in our own clan, and we miss the ones who pass on.  So is life.

    Yes, missing loved ones is a part of life. I have lost so many friends and family to distance, dementia and death. This week is the anniversary of my mom's death and she has been on my mind.
